Description:

Macros in Access can be considered like a simplified programming language that can be used to increase the functionality of the data base. For example, it can enclose a macro to a command button in a form, so the macro is executed when clicking in the button. The macros contain actions that make tasks, like opening a report, executing a query or to close the data base. Almost all the operations of data bases that normally are made manually can automate by means of macros, thus saving time.
